Tell me the name of one person who does not want to win in life. Have you ever come across a situation where you really want to loose (except the crap about love; however, in that also the looser looses to win, of course)?

Success has its own charm. Everyone wants success in life. Now this is not limited to professional, personal, relational or social level only. Nor the success rules only the individuals, teams, divisions, organizations or countries. Our scientists in NASA are in continuous research to get to know about the other living forms in the space so that they can trace them and then compete with them. Thus, this desire to compete and, thereafter, win is the inherent part in all living beings irrespective of biological conditions. The meaning of success could be different for different people. It could be money for someone, and power for someone else, and relationships for the third party. But one thing is common - that no one wants to loose. Even a lazy person who does not move his body for the whole day has desires, and to attain these desires, he has to compete and, thereby, win. And if still you contradict my point and know a person who does not have a will or who does not want to succeed in life, then again I am not wrong, my dear friend, because that person would be nothing more than a living body but a dead soul.

Now the question arises that is there any mantra to attain success. Everyone has his/her own, but is there any mantra which is foolproof and easy to implement? And are there any strict no-nos, which one can refer before making any decision so that he/she does not fail, at least?

With a lot of night-oil burning, research work and plain observation, I have designed "15 Fs", which if implemented, will definitely lead to success. Now again, success could be of individual or organization and personal or professional. I have also designed "half a dozen Fs", which are strict no-nos to avoid failure. These rules are universal and can be implemented in any culture or organization.
